Thanks geobloke,
I am using a new flange, so its probably best to stick to the manual instruction, with the seal "just touching the bearing circlip".
Hope it goes well this time.

I have a 110 TD5 Defender, MY2002.
Dealing with changing the LT230 rear output oil seal, I am interested in whether the new seal should be drifted in so that it contacts the bearing track, or shoul ... |

I can also vouch for the X8R repair kit. I did mine 3 years ago due to a leak (coupled with a leaking rocker cover gasket = messy) and it has been perfectly fine since then.
I can thoroughly endors ... |

Remember that splined shafts hate to be separated if pulled in any other way but directly in-line. The splines bind. So make sure you pull straight.
I take your point about pulling the wheel s ... |

Hi All,
I'm having difficulty removing the steering wheel in my 2004 110 TD5.
No amount of banging etc, is having any effect, so I need to use a puller & would like to know whether anyone ... |

Good advice for the OP.
Also a good opportunity to adjust the gear lever bias springs to take up any play. This can make a huge difference to buzzes & rattles, & improves the gear selection ... |

There is a good chance that the engine light/limp mode occurrence will have left a fault code in the ECU which can be checked in order to identify the fault.
The most likely would be a fault with t ... |

I just thought I should complete this thread.
The job was a doddle really. I was able to use a hacksaw to cut through the damaged bolt, which i could not undo in the normal fashion. No problem then ... |

You might be lucky with this approach, but it is made much harder by the fact that you can't get the handbrake drum off with the propshaft in place.
Holding the flange whilst undoing (or doing up) ... |

If you have enough slack, maybe you can put a hacksaw between the prop flange and the brake drum?
If the nut is spinning, most likely with a new lock nut, the bolt would spin again.
If you hack t ... |

Thanks blackwolf for your advice.
It's not good news though, to have to remove the flange. I will need to get some sort of retaining/holding tool to remove the flange nut, which can be very tight, ... |
